ALBUQUERQUE – Ronald P. Lopez, 25, of Albuquerque, N.M.,
pled guilty this morning in federal court to a bank robbery charge. Lopez entered the guilty plea without the
benefit of a plea agreement.
The FBI arrested Lopez on March 14, 2018, on a criminal
complaint charging him with robbing the US Bank branch located at 2015 Eubank
Blvd., in Albuquerque on Feb. 26, 2018.
Lopez subsequently was indicted on April 10, 2018, and was charged with
bank robbery on Feb. 26, 2018, in Bernalillo County, N.M.
At sentencing, Lopez faces a statutory maximum penalty of 20
years in federal prison and a $250,000 fine.
Lopez has been in federal custody since his arrest and will remain
detained pending his sentencing hearing, which has yet to be scheduled.
This case was investigated by the Albuquerque office of the
FBI and the Albuquerque Police Department.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Niki Tapia-Brito is prosecuting the case.
